## Synopsis

Number One is a 1973 Italian crime drama film directed by Gianni Buffardi and starring Renzo Montagnani, Luigi Pistilli, Claude Jade, Chris Avram, Guido Mannari and Massimo Serato. The film is loosely based on a real-life story detailing crime and drugs in the Rome underground. After the film quickly disappeared from public view in 1973 due to political censorship, it was restored in 2021 and had a theatrical re-release and world premiere on television.
